Benefits of technology

The patent text is about a wireless power transmission system that aims to efficiently transfer power. The technical effect of the invention is to optimize power transmission in a wireless system.

Problems solved by technology

In addition, coils are utilized and therefore it difficult to reduce the size of the devices.
When the power reception device is for example a tablet terminal in which the secondary battery has a large charging capacity, there is a problem that the charging time is long when power transmission is not efficiently performed.

Abstract

A wireless power transmission system includes a power transmission device, which applies an alternating-current voltage to active and passive electrodes, and a power reception device, which supplies to a load a voltage induced in active and passive electrodes facing the active and passive electrodes of the power transmission device. The power transmission device includes a planar coil connected to the active and passive electrodes and the power reception device includes a planar coil connected to the active and passive electrodes. Magnetic flux generated by the planar coils link with each other causing the planar coils to be magnetic-field coupled with each other. Thus, a wireless power transmission system capable of efficiently transmitting power is provided.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application is a continuation of PCT / JP2014 / 067325 filed Jun. 30, 2014, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-137683, filed Jul. 1, 2013, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a wireless power transmission system in which power is wirelessly transmitted from a power transmission device to a power reception device.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]As a representative example of a wireless power transmission system, a magnetic-field-coupling-method power transmission system is known in which power is transmitted by utilizing a magnetic field from a primary coil of a power transmission device to a secondary coil of a power reception device. In this system, when power is transmitted by magnetic field coupling, the magnitude of the magnetic flux passing through each coil greatly affects the electromotive force and...
